Mounting concerns and a rising price tag have been some of the issues which have delayed the completion of restoration work of the historic Ward theatre located in the heart of downtown Kingston.
Despite the setbacks, mayor of the city of Kingston Councillor Senator Delroy Williams is confident that the theatre which has been closed for well over a decade will reopen its doors by the end of 2020.
The mayor told the Jamaica Observer that he is pleased with the progress of the restoration work which has been named a national Labour Day project last year.
